Built-in search and rescue ( MSAR ) is a specialization in search and rescue (SAR), using horses as search and transport partners to search for missing people. SAR respondents who ride horses are essentially search resources, but can also provide logistical support and off-road transportation. SAR resellers installed in some terrain can move faster on the ground than on a walking man, can carry more equipment, and may be less physically exhausted than SAR responders who do the same task on foot. Built-in SAR respirators typically have a longer initial response time than the groundpounder SAR resources, because of the time it takes to retrieve trailers, horses, and possibly water, feed, and equipment.

Organization
Major volunteer units exist in the United States, Canada, Australia, Germany, and Iceland.
In the United States, many districts that specifically represent, usually volunteers, install search and rescue groups. Some of these groups came from World War II. Across the United States, SAR groups are in the process of organizing themselves into associations, usually in the state. Formal guidelines for MSAR have been established in several states: California, New Mexico, Maine, Maryland, and Virginia. International standards for installed searchers have been developed through the ASTM F32 for Search and Rescue committee.
In Germany, the Johanniter-Unfall-Hilfe (JUH) voluntary humanitarian association has recently begun to build local and regional groups that provide the first respondent service on horseback. This was modeled after the first aid service was road-based from JUH, except that the horse provides for off-road travel. The first group, founded in March 2001 in Harburg, adopted the standard Deutsche Reiterliche Vereinigung e.V. (FN) for the first respondent on a horse riding sporting event. In 2008, there were 8 groups. Around the same time the German Red Cross briefly recognized groups with similar functions.

Find and save animals
The search and rescue horse is a horse trained and used for search and rescue. In many cases, the horse is only a means of transportation for a SAR respondent. In other cases, the horse is a full member of the SAR field team. Like SAR dogs, SAR horses can be trained to search for missing people, using their hearing senses, scenting, and sharp eyesight. In addition, some SAR respondents attached work with SAR dogs from the horse.
Search
The main role of the Installed SAR is in the "search" capacity. Riders and horses are usually trained to safely and effectively perform the search function. Riders have training as searchers that include the detection and protection of clues that may lead to the location of the missing person. The mounts used are expected to be quiet and reliable.
"View Horse Horse Looks"
The general training for horse-mounted seekers is "Look where the horse looks." Although there is training available to have horses or mules do the same with SAR Dogs, the majority of SAR horses are installed and their riders do not have this training. However, the natural senses and behavior of valuable birds during the search, without special training, make the animal a worthy search partner for guidance detection. Horses or donkeys show a behavior to show "something" as part of the animal's natural behavior, and the rider determines whether the horse may have recorded the whereabouts of someone who may be a lost person, or a clue that might help cause the person.
Tracking from Saddle
Some riders of Mounted SAR have special additional training to seek guidance from the saddle. This valuable skill allows searchers installed to move faster when clues, such as shoe prints, are visible from the saddle. Motorists descend when needed when looking closely or tracking while walking more profitable.
Rescue
In today's rescue situation, the horse has two main uses: quick response and subject transportation. Both uses mainly occur in areas not accessible by road-based emergency vehicles: in coastal areas where heavier vehicles tend to be trapped in wet or deep sand, and in wilderness areas. In these areas, horses can be used to patrol and in some cases transport people in need of assistance. Examples include volunteer horse patrol in Hampton Beach, New Hampshire.
As an example of MSAR's distinctive quick response, deployment in northern Germany continues as follows.
Spreading at LÃÆ'üneburg Heath: At noon on August 16, 2008, Saturday, in a neighborhood near Undeloh, a female tourist experienced anaphylaxis, a life-threatening allergic reaction, due to some insect stings. The emergency dispatcher called the Johanniter horse team and police at Undeloh, who both patrolled regularly. The horse team ran as far as 5 km to the subject location. There, a rescue assistant and Johanniter police officer stabilized the unconscious subject quite well so that, by the time the ambulance and rescue helicopter arrived, the subject was reawakened and transportable. In areas where land transport is very difficult or slow (both urban and jungle), people in need of urgent medical care are often transported by helicopter. In these areas, the MSAR team is training by helicopter. Training involves identification of suitable landing sites, customizing horses with helicopters that operate at close range, and helicopter safety.
Transportation in the saddle is used, but it has a more limited application than a hand done or a litter-mounted animal. In the United States transportation in the saddle is a method taught and used in the National Park Service in Yosemite National Park and some of the SAR's installed personnel have this training.
Mules for medical evacuation is also a special training for combat troops at Animal Packing Course at Marine Marine Corps Training Center. "The Gunung Medical Instructor has developed a special saddle to transport seated patients and stretcher for lying patients," and "saddle" is made from materials available even in third world countries, according to Olive-Drab. SAR training installed using a traditional saddle. A western saddle is shown in the photo.
Equine used as an animal package can also carry medical supplies to support rescue. Some installed SAR units also have packet animals that are used as resources, but these are more common in wilderness areas or wider mountains where it is more common to find experienced riders in the use of packaged animals. In America, often members are taken from professional packing or members of the local unit of Backcountry Horsemen.
History
Historically, there are several alternatives to horses for transportation of the subject. Several books and reports have been published, describing the transport of sick or injured people using horses. The equipment described in this publication includes carts, carts, and special purpose junk. Litter is used to carry passengers between two horses, or behind horse packs or donkeys (or camels, see ambulance light horse field).
(*) Note: The "trash" in the picture is not really litter, designed to protect the patient and is moved by the horse, but the train used in hippotherapy; patients, who are often double defects, are positioned on horseback. The patient will feel all the movement and warmth of the horses, which improves (among other things) the circulation of blood and general health.
Package trash
In India, the package bins are known as dhooley . In Europe, and sometimes in the United States, it is known as cacolet . The junk package has two main variants: one carrying one person on the back of the pack of animals; the other carries two people, one on each side. In the Civil War of the United States, horses were equipped with litters to transport wounded soldiers from the battlefield. Similarly, and training guides to use them, were produced for the United States Army around World War I. This litter included 2-person Carlisle cacolet and 1-person Division 1 cacolet .
Travois
Travois is very stable and difficult to reverse. Apparently not used in Europe, it was widely used in North America by Native Americans from before the colonial period. After the Battle of 1877 Clearwater in Idaho, George Miller Sternberg used travois to move wounded soldiers from the battlefield to a hospital 25 miles away. In very difficult field conditions, travo is sometimes used even today.
